This year's Autumn Festival will have new attractions as well as old favorities. Kongo Krazy is back! Climb and slide in the midst of an inflatable battle between a life-size King Kong and a T-Rex. From the depths of the most secluded jungle of the world comes the most powerful forces that man or beast has ever seen. Challenge yourself to climb the waterfall and deal, face-to-face, with these giant creatures!

Other inflatables not to be missed: Wacky World Obstacle Course where you run, climb, crawl, hopscotch, slide, jump, dodge, squeeze and twist yourself wacky, Joustman where you are armed with your large, padded jousting pole where you face your opponent, Ocean Playland and the Dalmation Moon Walker with a 22-foot slide. Try and hold onto our Mechanical Bull ride for as long as you can.

For those inclined to take in the sights and sounds of the Autumn Festival from a calmer perspective, Timothy the Trackless Train will be there from 2:00 to 8:00 p.m. More surprises to come so check back again!

Bring your appetite and a bib for the return of the popular Pie Eating Contest! Plenty of entertainment too including the return of Balloon Art by Carla, Strolling Magician Robbie Wise, Tang Soo Do Karate, Broadway Dance Studio, Montour Drum Line, Scriba Dance Studio, Pittsburgh Poison all Stars, and the MLS Cheerleaders. Don't forget to cool down or heat up (your choice!) with some jazz from Clem Rolin and the Pittsburgh Jazz All Stars.

Entertainment continues throughout the day and into the evening with headliner group, The Stickers, a popular country band who has opened for a number of country superstars, including Hank Williams, Jr., Alan Jackson, Billy Ray Cyrus and others. They are three-time Billboard Song Writing Award Winners and will take the Autumn Festival stage around 7:30 p.m.

Fireworks will light up the sky for a climax to the day. Zambelli International will set in motion an ending to a perfect day. Fireworks will begin around 9:45.

Come early, stay late, and be sure to bring your family and friends. Don't miss out on any of the fun!
